Q4 revenue increases 31% to $3.1 million
4Q gross profit increases to $2.0 million, or 65% of total revenue
267% increase in 2024 shareholders' equity compared to 2023
Company expanded Nova Ortho and Spine footprint and enhanced patient volume in 2024
LEXINGTON, KY / ACCESS Newswire / March 17, 2025 / Cardiff Lexington Corporation (OTC PINK:CDIX) announced today financial results for its fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2024.
Alex Cunningham, Chief Executive Officer of Cardiff Lexington, commented, "In the fourth quarter we reported 31% revenue growth with 65% gross margins and strong adjusted EBITDA, capping off a year of solid execution delivering world class care to our patients. We opened two new Nova Ortho and Spine locations during the year: Our Valdosta, Georgia location, opened in February 2024, is our first location outside the state of Florida, and our Orlando location, opened in July, establishes Nova Ortho and Spine in a major metropolitan area with greater population density and higher patient traffic. Our patient volume improved throughout the year, and we expect to continue growing our patient network as we expand into new locations.
"That said, this year was not without its challenges," Mr. Cunningham continued. "Hurricane Helene forced us to halt operations across all Nova Ortho and Spine locations in Florida for multiple weeks in September. Additionally, we recognized one-time, non-cash adjustments in the first three quarters of 2024 totaling $2.8 million to better align revenue with 2024 annualized claim settlement realization rates. It is important to note that our 2024 non-GAAP adjusted revenue, which excludes these non-cash adjustments, was $11.1 million.
"Looking forward, demand is as strong as it has ever been at our clinics, and we continue to explore acquisition opportunities to further broaden our footprint. Our balance sheet is significantly improved with shareholders' equity increasing 267% compared to 2023, and we are well positioned to capitalize on the many opportunities that we're seeing in the market to drive growth and value in fiscal 2025," Mr. Cunningham concluded.
